"While it may be true that we told a lie before we had evidence, we really wanted that first lie to be true, so it's cool, right?
The problem is they had evidence as Joss’ husband had said as much
Well, he shouldnt be too hard for the church/sheriff to deal with. So that solves that.
Witness statements aren't evidence if they don't like what the witness has to say.
They had years of evidence of previous hate crimes.
Hell, the only reason they were at the place to begin with was to check the mail at the ashes of their previous house that had been burned down by a gay-hating arsonist.
'Gay hating' just say christian.
Which, notably, was not investigated by the pigs.
Someone burned their house down (presumably killing their dog) and then placed the dog skull in the driveway to lure them back. When they came back the neighbor came at them calling them slurs and opened fire.
Seems pretty suspicious to me, weird that the local cops couldn't piece it together.
The local cops know exactly what happened. The only shocking revelation would be that they didn't actively have anything to do with the crimes.
Hey maybe we shouldn't have those anymore?
